Thanks for these stats! (Though I'm sure there's some bias because Tkinter
is in the stdlib and the others aren't. Stdlib status still counts a lot
for many people, pip notwithstanding. (But that's a different thread. :-))
FWIW I tried to get the Tkinter-asyncio demo mentioned in the above thread
to work but I couldn't (then again Tk on OS X is difficult). If someone
could turn this into a useful event loop that blends asyncio and Tkinter
that would be truly awesome!

Sorry to send you on such a wild goose chase! I did mean the issue you found #21). I just updated it with a link to a thread that has more news:

I wasn't able to verify the version by Luciano Ramalho. (And yes, extending all this to working with a subprocess is left as an exercise. It's all pretty academic IMO, given Tkinter's lack of popularity outside IDLE.)
On Stackoverflow pyside has gotten 40 questions tagged in the last 30 days, wxpython 70 in the last 30 days, pyqt 114 in 30 days, while tkinter has gotten 101 in the last week, which would project to about 425 in the last 30 days. So tkinter is being used at least by beginners. There have been a few tkinter and python-asyncio questions.
